Warhammer: Age of Reckoning

Due to being sick, I don’t have a Straight Talk Warhammer today. Look for all the facts you never knew about the Witch Hunter, Monday. Have a good weekend :)

You love you some Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning, but the game isn’t addicting enough. There should be some way of making your time away from the game an interminable hell. If only… if only there was a career that could give you such a high that when you came down, all you could think about would be your next fix – and the next after that. Meet the best friend you will ever have in the game, the one whose number is #1 speed dial on your cell phone, the one who always has what you need – the Runepriest. ...

Ever since Blizzard created the MMORPG genre with World of Warcraft, generations of people wondered if the genre they invented would end with that game – it was just so good, such a shining gem of perfection, that to add or subtract any one thing to that game would just mar its sublime beauty. And then Mythic dreamed of a new game, one as polished as WoW, but with things WoW had never imagined, like two sides forever at war – at WAR! – and battlegrounds where the two mortal enemies could meet in order to take on well-defined challenges for points. The name of this paragon of innovation? ...

Do you remember what life was like before Warhammer Online: The Age of Reckoning? I sure can’t. Well, sometimes it comes in little bits and pieces… a world where to do a raid or join a group, you had to talk to people, and sometimes, make friends. Brrr. We’re all pretty glad THOSE days are over! The exciting new Public Quests and Open Groups and Scenarios keep things nice and anonymous – just like watching porn in a movie theater! And that is the mastery AND mystery of Mythic’s groundbreakingly innovative new MMO that will forever change what we think of, when we think of MMOs – Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning. ...

We’re baaaaaaaack…..! Warhammer Online: The Age of Reckoning, brought public quests to a public quest-less world, Tomes of Knowledge to the forgetful, open groups to the friendless, and in all ways has transformed the world. Warhammer Online has twenty unique classes or ‘careers’, and each one plays like no other class in any other MMO, proving once again that WAR’s innovative and unique game play will have every other MMO dev yelling to their computer, “Why didn’t WE have something like that!” ...

*Producer’s note: Hey folks, just a head’s up. I know a lot of you were looking forward to a full set of 100 editions of “Straight Talk Warhammer”, our exclusive look at the amazing World of Warhammer. And we did our best, but as we were running STW past our beta-readers, we noticed that some of the posts needed some tweaking. There were spelling errors, run-on sentences, and, frankly, some pretty gnarly grammar mistakes here and there. So we’ve decided to cut the series down to just four posts, to give you the best reading experience possible. We will release STWs covering the other nineteen classes, the second city, and every public quest and scenario, at some point in the future – if they aren’t good enough, we won’t make ya read them! We promise! ...

40 long years ago, an intrepid Swiss scientist first discovered that aliens had come to Earth many times in our past, always guiding mankind toward sapience, civilization, and the stars. They made us who we are today, and they brought us Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning. Only the alien intelligences that have already brought us public quests, open groups, the Tome of Knowledge and Realm vs Realm could bring us the dark wonders of the Inevitable City. ...

Hey, welcome back to the second in our exclusive series about the exciting innovative gameplay of Mythic’s Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning. Public quests, open groups, the excitement of the Tome of Knowledge, all things never seen before the evil geniuses at Mythic brewed them up in charmed cauldrons on some fog-shrouded Scottish moor, with the witch-goddess Hecate shrieking over it. It’s a well-known fact that the color red in the game packaging is made from blood. ...

Warhammer Online. Warhammer. WAR. WAAAAGH. All ways to describe the game sweeping our interwebs in ways Google can easily find. More? Public quests? This game has public quests. Tome of Knowledge? This is the ONLY GAME with a Tome of Knowledge. World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King, coming this November, does not have public quests OR a Tome of Knowledge. Order. Destruction. War everywhere becomes WAR everywhere. Public quests and the Tome of Knowledge and Order and Destruction and Realm vs Realm – things every game, such as Blizzard’s World of Warcraft, and its upcoming Wrath of the Lich King expansion, will soon have in abundance. Soon, EA Mythic’s Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning will no longer be able to call public quests, and the Tome of Knowledge, something exclusive only to WAR. ...

Warhammer has public quests, and open groups!!!! Pfft, big deal. So does Wizard 101. (Joining a friend in an instanced dungeon automatically gives you the quest for that dungeon – et voila, public quests :) /me calls up ISP to have them brace for a flood of traffic because I have mentioned Warhammer! Warhammer! Order or Destruction! CHOOSE YOUR SIDE AND PREPARE FOR BATTLE! Woot! Woot! DEATH TO ALL THE VILE PEOPLE OF THE OTHER FACTION!
